Hello and welcome back to your English five a day on the English Like a Native podcast.
This is the daily podcast aimed at intermediate to advanced level English learners who want to expand their vocabulary,
improve their listening skills and feel more confident when using this language.
The way we learn is through stories because let's face it's much more fun to learn with stories.
My name is Anna and today is week 11, day 4 of our story following Gabriel as he journeys across the UK.
Yesterday, Gabriel was unexpectedly invited to judge a baking competition at a village fete,
a classic slice of British community life.
Today, he steps right into the heart of the event.
Supporting materials for this season are available at www. joinelan. com.
But now, let's begin with a snapshot.
At the village fate, people gather to enjoy the day,
chat away with friends, and Gabriel begins to mingle with the crowd.
As the judge, he must carefully sample each baked treat.
While the organisers work behind the scenes to host the event successfully.
Fabulous.
Now it's time for our vocabulary breakdown.
First, let's look at the word mingle.
To mingle.
M-I-N-G-L-E.
I wonder if you could use the cafe?
